About this listen

We get into the DEEP CUTS this time with underground artist Shigeru Miyamoto—oh wait, he actually created Super Mario Bros. and The Legend of Zelda, which are two of the most lucrative properties in video games, along with Donkey Kong, Super Mario 64, Devil World, Excitebike, and Kung Fu. How did an industrial design major like Miyamoto adopt the "game designer" title so early? Did his philosophy change as he moved from arcade cabinets to home consoles? Is Super Mario Run a hidden masterpiece!?
